Associate Professor Jodie Ingles leads Australia’s National Registry for Genetic Heart Disease, bringing together patients and families to improve diagnosis, treatment and understanding of inherited heart conditions through cutting-edge genomic research.

Prof. Ingles and her team at the Garvan Institute are researching the genetic causes of inherited heart diseases, such as cardiomyopathies and arrhythmias, which can lead to sudden cardiac death. Their work focuses on identifying the underlying genetic mutations that put individuals and families at risk, using advanced genomic sequencing and data from the National Registry for Genetic Heart Disease.

By combining genetic insights with clinical information, they aim to improve diagnosis, guide personalised treatment, and inform family screening. The team also studies how families experience and respond to genetic testing, helping to shape better care and counselling for affected Australians.
